He was at 234 @ +12 and a 1/2. Gonna test again in 15 to see if he's still dropping. Should I shoot if he is? I can't shoot past 7pm or it will kill our food schedule in the AM, plus I have to work in the AM, so I won't be around to test at +1. Smaller dose? I'm thinking yes.
 
He's still dropping. Was 211 at 6:33pm, 15 minutes after I last checked him. His SS says it was at +14, but I just put that there so I could document. It's times like this when I am doubtful. I was told to shoot a rising number, but I dislike the idea of skipping a shot when he's borderline.
 
He's been eating, too, which is making me debate shooting. He's been eating since 5pm EST, but his #'s are dropping? What is UP with this cat??
I gave him Advantage yesterday for his freeloaders. Could this have an effect?
 
If he is dropping after food, it may mean his pancreas is starting to work again. How long can you wait before messing up the schedule? It should be safe to give a token dose of less than .5 since he is in the 200s, but you'd want to be able to monitor. Is that possible tomight or not?
 
At this point, I don't think I'll be able to shoot and monitor. Tonight my be a skip night, just because this has never happened (him eating and BG dropping).
 
It's been an interesting couple of cycles. He probably saw a string of greens last night so tonight might be seeing a small bounce and why he's still dropping, the bounce is wearing off.

Skipping is ok if you can't monitor because this is uncharted territory.
